Equine Therapy for Veterans at Fieldstone Farm

Equine Therapy for Veterans at Fieldstone Farm

Non-Profit

16497 Snyder Road Chagrin Falls, OH 44023, Chagrin Falls, Ohio

Fieldstone Farm is one of the largest and most respected equine therapy centers in the country serving approximately 1,000 people with emotional, physical and cognitive disabilities through the therapeutic power of our horses. Our Veterans Program offers military and their families a place of support, full of empathy and free of judgment.

Through working with our highly trained team of therapists, instructors and horses, veterans learn skills to work through and overcome the struggles and stressors of everyday civilian life while healing from emotional and physical trauma. Veterans work alongside a horse to build confidence and connection. Our experienced staff creates a safe and accepting environment for our veterans and their families. We see transformational changes in our veterans after bonding with our horses, including:

·         Improved relationships

·         Greater confidence

·         Increased mindfulness

·         Reduced anxiety

·         Lower blood pressure

All of our veterans programs are free thanks to generous donations. To learn more about our programs for you or someone you care about, go to our website, fieldstonefarm.org or contact (440) 708-0013 or programs@fieldstonefarm.org.

Veterans Community Project

Veterans Community Project

Non-Profit

8900 Troost Ave, Kansas City, Missouri

Established in Kansas City, Missouri, by a group of combat Veterans, Veterans Community Project provides high quality and well-developed strategic services that enable Veterans to meet the challenges of day-to-day living, resolve immediate crises, and move towards permanent stability.

 

VCP’s solution is simple: provide Veterans a home of their own and individualized, wraparound support services that not only help get them back on their feet but ensure they continue standing.

 

The tiny homes in VCP Village offer Veterans a sense of security, and the opportunity to reintegrate into the community at their own pace. Each home is pet-friendly and fully furnished with everything a Veteran needs, from new furniture to dish towels. 

 

Specially trained case managers work one-on-one with each resident to achieve incremental, lasting results in the areas of health and wellness, education, employment, financial literacy, and the development of a personal support network. When the Veteran is ready, VCP provides support in finding a long-term housing solution, which may include market-rate rentals, homeownership, or subsidized housing. Not only does the Veteran take the entire contents of the tiny house with them, but they take the ongoing support of the Village as well.
